Book Review of A Lion's Tale: Around the World in Spandex

A Lion's Tale: Around the World in Spandex
reviewed on


If you're a huge wrestling fan, as I am, then this book is definitely for you. This books tells of Chris' life from the time he was little until he made his WWE Debut, when he interrupted the monologue on Monday Night Raw of "The Great One", The Rock. It tells of his struggles to become one of the greatest wrestlers & talkers of all time, behind the scenes stories of New Japan, ECW, WCW, WWE, etc. (and the stories about some of our beloved favorite wrestlers), from his mother's tragic accident, which left her in a wheelchair, of the deaths of some of his closest friends, to meeting his wife, & some of THE funniest antecdotes & stories imaginable.
I honestly read this book in 2 days. It was hilarious & sad at times, but I can tell you, I could NOT put this book down. It was laugh out loud funny.
